[jjjazzycraig]

this is old...the announcer speaks of the commanche...the us is so broke we cant even afford to replace the obsolete and tired birds we have now.

[tchapman1977]

jjjazzycraig: The AH-1F Cobra is still a perfectly capable and viable attack helicopter even today with the upgrades & enhancements they have employed. The UH-60 (and even the UH-1 Huey) are still capable aircraft in their own rights. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I have yet to see any other country's military make anything better or more modern than anything the US presently has in its arsenal. It's all in how you use what you've got.

[jjjazzycraig]

i agree...but i would rather retain a competitive edge than have a surprise pop over a tree line.

[tchapman1977]

@jjjazzycraig It's certainly all well & good to maintain a competitive edge, but new technology also has flaws & issues that have to be worked out before they can be considered combat-ready. Also, in retaining the competitive edge, that also doesn't mean you have to scrap or toss out the existing tools in your arsenal in the process.

[jjjazzycraig]

@tchapman1977 all true...i just wish we had some designs on paper...the fleets are getting old and sadly, no money exists to replace them...AIRBORNE.

[dashingshaky]

Uh 1 the best and no one can beat its sould. love it,..

[LordReaper117]

@tchapman1977 also i believe that the ah-1 has a smalled profile on radar than the ah-64

[tchapman1977]

@LordReaper117 I wouldn't know anything about that but you may be right. Certainly the Apache is more modern & can be augmented to fit more mission profiles than the Cobra, but the Cobra still has a lot of life left in it & I hope that it continues to faithfully serve the US for many more years to come.

@tchapman1977 what the fuck do you know about viable!?! buzzwords....clearly your old. you don know youre cobra asshole from your huey dick. move on fuckface and die.

[tchapman1977]

@JiffJaffa Excuse me!?! You clearly have no concept of manners, jackass! I didn't ask for your opinion & until I do, keep your bullshit insults to yourself. Have a nice day.
